Marvel.com: Over the course of the last season, Skye really developed strong relationships with some of the different team members like Coulson and May. Moving into this new season, how would you characterize where their relationships are at today?
Chloe Bennet: I think you’ll find she’s always had this unspoken bond with Coulson that’s a very father/daughter relationship where clearly the love they have for each other is evident in a very caring way. But he is Director Coulson now, so the dynamic is definitely different. I think it’s a bit more professional. She’s a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent now, so I think she wants to be taken seriously in that light and she’s been training with May.
Marvel.com: How is Ward’s betrayal sitting with, her and how’s that motivate her moving forward?
Chloe Bennet: I think it really motivates her. Coming from someone who has no family and really didn’t trust anyone from the beginning [to] being let into this ragtag family and finally trusting people, feeling like she’s part of something…then all of a sudden after getting her S.H.I.E.L.D. badge for a day, it all goes to crap and she finds out the one person she really trusts the most--obviously besides Coulson--betrayed her, I think that’s going to take some time to overcome. But she’s been training with May and has dealt with it in a good way. The themes of that are still going to be threaded throughout the season, and we’ll see more of Skye and Ward’s interactions for sure. It’s not dead! We wouldn’t do that! They wouldn’t do that to us, I don’t think. I still ship SkyeWard. I don’t as Skye, but I do as me. I would like to see some romance for Skye. I feel kind of bad for her. We should just have one episode where it’s all romance, because these poor guys! It’s all aliens and action! They need some loving!
